I’ve always wanted a Zac Posen bag and last year I clearly was crossing off a lot of my shopping wishlist items.
Review | Zac Posen Eartha Wristlet Crossbody Bag
Review | Furla Portagioia Bag
Furla is an underrated brand. They are priced at that mid tier level between high street fashion and designer (I think we are calling them “contemporary” brands now?) so they are relatively affordable but don’t really skimp on quality and retain that luxury feel. There needs to be more reviews on Furla bags, so let me start with Portagioia.
Review | Coperni Mini Swipe Bag
Physical catalogs were basically eradicated with the rise of websites, stores are betting on e-commerce, and the concept of celebrities is changing with new forms of social media. The internet is the new electricity. It’s about time that fashion gets inspired by the digital world. Enter Coperni.
Review | Burberry Derby Small Banner Tote Bag
All hail my biggest purchase of 2020. Screw the 30th birthday, getting this bag was what made me feel all grown up. Months and months of working from home culminated into purchasing a bag that’s ideal for the office. One can wish for better times.
Review | Danse Lente Mini Johnny Bucket Bag in Peach and Lemon
I’ve referenced in the past that one day, a Danse Lente bag would be mine. After a nearly year-long courtship and a lot of intense sale scouting, a mini Johnny bucket bag was mine.

It was meant to be.
New Bags on the Block: Ralph Lauren, Kenzo & Ganni
Did you get through sale season unscathed? If you did, lie to me. Hide the high horse if you’re a role model of self control. ‘Cause I’m not. Neigh, I’m not.
It wasn’t just makeup that I caved in to, oh no. If someone was to make a chart about my bag purchase rate over the past year, it would be a consistent line until about two months ago, where it would grow more exponentially than the coronavirus crash to zero because I would start running with all my new bags under my arms before they could start counting them.
